“Development of petrochemistry is a serious area for Tatarstan and Russia in whole”, - RT President Rustam Minnikhanov said in Nizhnekamsk after the meeting with participation of RF Deputy Minister of energy Sergei Kudryashov.

The meting was held on the territory of JSC “Nizhnekamskneftehim” and was dedicated to development of oil-gas-chemical industry in Tatarstan and Bashkortostan.

Rustam Minnikhanov informed that by the example of large petrochemical plants located in Tatarstan he wanted to show how small and medium business may develop on their bases.

“As far as further development of oil-gas-chemical complex is concerned we are at the cross-roads”, - Rustam Minnikhanov said. “We have already addressed Vice-premier of RF government Igor Sechin on this issue”, - he added.

RT President believes that further development will depend on extending capacities of pyrolysis, therefore new production units will emerge. “Strategic objectives we’ve discussed today are to be implemented in order to realize it”, - Rustam Minnikhanov said.

“We’ve seen concrete projects today in course of meeting and we discussed ways of their realization and delivery of raw materials”, - RF Deputy Minister of energy Sergei Kudryashov said.
